Visited Dingzhou Citywalk·The First Stop·Dingzhou Kaifeng Pagoda last year with my parents

Considering their knees, I didn't take them up. This second visit was to see the inside. All the statues inside the pagoda are gone, many inscriptions have been stolen, and the faces of the figures in the murals have been damaged... Okay, let's talk about something happy. Aside from the modern scribbles on the walls (what? you call this happy?! :P~), there are also many inscriptions by literati and poets, some of which have been protected by the management with glass covers. During the climb, I encountered several groups of tourists. It's common to see young boys interested in photographing ancient relics, but surprisingly, a few young girls were also carefully appreciating the murals and inscriptions with their cameras... In the southwest corner of the courtyard, there is an inverted 'Monument to the Construction of a New Order in East Asia,' a solid proof of the Japanese invasion back in the day. Entrance is 10 yuan, and climbing the pagoda is 30 (since it's Citywalk, I guess all tickets are full price^_^).
